In Beit territory, on the second floor of a hotel three kilometers away from the caravan, Tang Guozhong looked at Chen An on the bed with a solemn expression.
At this moment, apart from Chen An's tearful eyes, a complex symbol vaguely appeared between his eyebrows.
This symbol exudes black energy and seems unreal, but it has a substantial existence.
"Trouble..."
Tang Guozhong muttered.
Yin Qiaoxian on the side suddenly grabbed the corner of Tang Guozhong's clothes: "Trouble? Why trouble? What does this symbol mean?"
Tang Guozhong moved a chair, sat next to Chen An, and whispered: "This is one of the boss's abilities. It is part of the most fundamental power of authority, the hanging mind.
This comes from the boss’s understanding during the Battle of Ramgoth in the Second Age. In that battle, simply hanging the world upside down could not destroy the will of the giant king Ramgoth. At the critical moment of life and death, the boss tried to let the real The rationalization of hanging upside down appeared in the heart of the Giant King, completely subverting the Giant King's will and causing the Giant clan to fall into civil strife. "
Although Yin Qiaoxian didn't know the weight of this period of history, she couldn't help but paled a little when she heard that this was the ability that the Hanged Lord had used against the so-called "Giant King".
"That basic ability...why can that woman use it?" Yin Qiaoxian couldn't help but ask.
Tang Guozhong grinned and smiled bitterly:
"This is the terrifying thing about the ability of the hanging mind. Its strength does not depend on the ability itself, but on... the will of the twisted person, which is the inner spiritual defense of the twisted person. .
If the person being twisted is an ordinary person with a fragile mind, he may be able to break free easily.
But if the person who is distorted is a person with a tough mind, the more impregnable the inner mental barrier is, the more it will turn into the most terrifying prison to imprison himself.
The function of most mind distortion spells is to raise a cage in people's hearts, and the same is true for illusion spells.
But this technique makes people's own mental barriers become their own cages. "
Twisting the real into falsehood, letting the false be perceived as true, making the false... more real than the real.
No longer will I seek out your spiritual weaknesses and crush them.
It's about finding out your own spiritual weaknesses and defeating yourself!
"Then Chen An..." Yin Qiaoxian looked at Chen An, with a little bloodshot eyes.
She turned to look out the window again. Above the sky, a huge barrier of order was gradually taking shape, slowly pressing down...
"Yes, our previous confidence in Chen An has now become a joke."
Tang Guozhong closed his eyes. He couldn't imagine what Chen Wudao would do to him if he found that Chen An had turned into a twisted mental patient when he came back.
So, Tang Guozhong took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and his consciousness sank into his heart again.
The mahjong game must continue.
...
...
"Is this the end of Jingshan Hospital?"
Chen An suddenly looked at Li Zimu. This crazy monster almost destroyed all life in the end!
Chen An took a deep breath, forced himself to stabilize his emotions, and sneered inwardly.
Oh, is this illusion a search for the fragility deep within oneself and reappearing it?
Unfortunately, what you don’t know is that I have already accepted all of this calmly.
Chen An slowly turned his head and looked at Ding Ping aside.
Seeing this girl again, Chen An's heart still couldn't help but ache.
This girl made him really realize the way to resist madness, which is the kindness of idiots and the glory of human beings.
Chen An pursed his lips. He looked at Ding Ping's grammatically cloudy eyes, which were filled with red bloodshot eyes, and the veins at her temples were bulging and beating...
All of this is exactly the same as the end of Jingshan Hospital.
"Look at...the phone...I...will help you cover..."
Ding Ping's voice was intermittent, tired and weak. She looked at Chen An and said with strength.
Chen An subconsciously looked at his hand, and sure enough, there was a black mobile phone.
On the screen, the four characters "Successfully passed" suddenly appeared!
On the message prompt page, the APP says this:
"The weirdness of Jingshan Hospital violates the rules and will disappear on its own after a short period of time. The weirdness of this hospital will disappear along with the hospital. From now on, the weird stories belonging to Jingshan Hospital will never appear again, and will never appear again. There are no patients who were admitted and never discharged...
Jingshan Hospital is still standing in Beizhong City, but here, there is no one..."
[Dear player, congratulations on successfully passing the level. Please go to the elevator on the first floor of the south area of Jingshan Hospital within five minutes and press the -2nd floor button three times in a row to leave the game world. 】
"We won, Ding Ping, we defeated Weirdness." Chen An looked at Ding Ping with a smile.
All this has already happened.
The fantasy thought that seeing Ding Ping again would trigger a fragility in the soul and make it easy to collapse. But what it didn't know was that when it saw its deceased friend again, it felt only joy and emotion in its heart.
I will be more determined and walk my own path.
"Yeah...that's great."
Ding Ping lowered her head and bared her teeth, as if she wanted to smile.
Chen An observed that Ding Ping's forehead was covered with veins, her face was pale, and there were some traces of crystal saliva on the corners of her mouth.
"You can't use your idiot abilities anymore, you will really become an idiot!" Chen An said softly: "Elevator, let's go directly to the elevator. It will be safe when we get in."
But Ding Ping's head slowly tilted like a rusty gear. She lowered her head and looked at Chen An blankly with a pair of dull eyes.
Her voice was calm, tired, and had a strange feeling that Chen An couldn't describe.
"What about...Sister Luo Ying?"
On the side, Li Zimu, who was completely crazy, was like a monster that opened red blood before dying, exuding an increasingly violent and crazy coldness.
It couldn't find Chen An and Ding Ping who had been "idioted" by Ding Ping, but it smelled the smell... and walked deeper into the corridor step by step!
Deep in the corridor, not far away, below...are the stairs to the second underground floor.
There is where Miao Luoying hides.
Chen An looked in the direction of the elevator entrance. The elevator door had opened at some point, as if waiting for them to enter and welcoming them out of here.
Their position was very close to the elevator entrance, and it might not even take ten seconds to rush over with all their strength.
"Do you want to leave Sister Luo Ying behind?"
Ding Ping tilted her head. Her face, which had become pale due to excessive use of the "idiot"'s weird ability, looked so weird at the moment.
"How can we save him?"
Chen An closed his eyes slightly and repeated the original script.
He asked me to experience it, so I will experience it. Reliving the past is also for a better future.
"I'll hold Li Zimu while you go bring Sister Luo Ying... over."
Listening to Ding Ping's weak but determined voice, even if Chen An heard it once, his heart would inevitably tremble again.
Chen An was still looking at Ding Ping's face.
But suddenly, while trembling... he felt a little warmth appear on his face.
It's Ding Ping's slightly dull eyes...
The tears shed...
"Chen An...go rescue Sister Luoying...we...are humans...not...monsters...I can hold off Li Zimu, I can!"
Chen An took a deep breath, pursed his lips, and showed a smile.
You are still like this, so stupid.
Like this, idiot.
Translucent tears slowly slid down Ding Ping's face. Her absent-minded pupils were slightly dilated due to "excessive idiocy". Her nose was red, her face was pale, and her eyes were
God is stubborn.
Chen An's mouth moved slightly, and he suddenly felt as if there was sand in his eyes.
This time, I will protect you.
Chen An looked at Li Zimu with a smile. He didn't have the courage back then, and perhaps he couldn't protect him effectively at all.
Without Ding Ping's idiotic power, he would not be able to fight against Li Zimu's madness, and the final outcome would be for them all to die, with no one surviving.
But now, Chen An clearly feels the fullness of power, and there are always gaps in the illusion of memory. He cannot completely let himself become as weak as before in his soul consciousness.
Then take this opportunity to make up for your original regrets in another way.
Because Chen An really didn't want to see Ding Ping appear in front of him in such a miserable state again.
If it were really like before, I wouldn't collapse because I know it's fake.
But if it can be avoided, even if it's fake, Chen An doesn't want to see it!
"Chen An...you..." Ding Ping looked at Chen An in disbelief, with a strange arc appearing at the corner of her dull mouth.
This is probably the sequelae of excessive idiotization. Chen An looked at Ding Ping and waved his hand: "Sister Ding Ping, go ahead. I can hold you back, but there is no time."
Immediately afterwards, Chen An suddenly pressed Ding Ping's back and gently pushed her inside.
He, on the other hand, broke away from the "idiot transformation" and looked at the crazy monster, Li Zimu.
A trace of ridicule appeared on the corner of Chen An's mouth, just like Ding Ping before, he raised his middle finger at Li Zimu.
"Come and hit me, idiot."
Ding Ping, who was on the side, staggered and stumbled against the wall. She bowed her waist slightly, her body seemed as weak as a piece of paper, and she would fall down when the wind blew, but she walked firmly towards the passage. Run deep.
Seeing Ding Ping escape from the idiot figure, Chen An felt a lot more relieved.
At least this way, she won't be backlashed so badly.
And Li Zimu's twisted and crazy eyes looked sharply at Chen An.
Accompanied by roars that were more ferocious than beasts and crazier than monsters, Li Zimu's claws brought bursts of Yin Qi. At this moment, the pair of claws continued to enlarge in front of Chen An's eyes...enlarge...
Chen An stretched out a hand and spoke softly.
"Magic box."
The next moment, a frightening magic box of nothingness suddenly appeared in Chen An's hand. As Li Zimu's claws approached, the magic box of nothingness suddenly exploded. From the palm of Chen An's right hand, a dozen white pigeons fluttered their wings. Fly out!
These pigeons collided with Li Zimu and exploded at the moment of collision!
Turned into confetti, turned into candy, turned into bubbles.
Li Zimu, on the other hand, let out a painful cry!
Chen An looked at Li Zimu, and unknowingly, his scare box was no longer what it was before, no longer just a joke in a magic show.
Nowadays, every pigeon and explosion contains the stickiness and strange power that represents the spirit. Those scraps of paper are sharp and sticky like chewing gum. Those candies represent the spirituality absorbed from Li Zimu, and those bubbles It means drawing out the enemy's power, and the moment the bubble bursts is also the moment the enemy's power is consumed.
The power of the "Joker's" weird, absorbing, adhering, physical and mental dual attacks has only become apparent now.
"If I was who I am now, everything would be different."
Chen An shook his head. He looked at Li Zimu, who had no power to resist, and walked towards the depths of the passage.
At this time, Li Zimu was just a grotesque with half a foot in the horror. Even the madness before his death was only comparable to the intensity after he completely absorbed the clown's essence.
It is not much different from the "clown liberation" state when I first left Soft City.
Chen An was walking, and soon he saw the dark staircase.
On the second negative floor downstairs, there is Miao Luo Ying Zang
Logically speaking, he should have bumped into the two women now, and then fled with them, and the memory recall would have ended.
Chen An didn't make a sound. He walked slowly downstairs. In the darkness, he saw Ding Ping's back in a hospital gown.
And in the corner, Miao Luoying was curled up with her legs intertwined and her fingers intertwined.
"Sister Luoying, Chen An is in danger. I need your help. If you don't sacrifice yourself now, all of us will die!"
In the darkness, Ding Ping's voice was low, full of anxiety, but so clear.
But these words made Chen An frown slightly.
Isn’t the game already cleared?
Is Ding Ping anxious for her own life?
"No more, no more...I have nothing!"
Miao Luoying's voice was choked and trembling, with great fear. She had been immersed in the horrific death predicted in the dream and had no ability to think normally at all.
"But don't you have status? Your father must be very powerful, right?" Ding Ping turned her back to Chen An and did not notice Chen An's arrival.
Chen An thought that she would not have thought that she would arrive so soon. If she looked at it normally, at this time, she would have been torn into pieces by the crazy Li Zimu.
"No more...no more...we all have to die...all will die..." Miao Luoying said, she almost let out a miserable wail at the end!
"Hey, you are so stupid." Ding Ping shook her head, and she whispered into Miao Luoying's ear: "Then, please lend me your power, and I will avenge you and Chen An. .”
"Do you need my power?" When Miao Luoying heard this, her expression was startled, and she seemed to suddenly gain some clarity.
"Yes, in order to cover me, Chen An is fighting with Li Zimu now. If you don't hurry up, he will die... Ha, what a fool, but I was right again. I was really afraid that he would die at that time... Promise me, let me drag the monster, in that case... the idiot's show will have to continue." Ding Ping's voice contained a slight smile, but Miao Luoying was not aware of it at this moment. These.
Without the slightest hesitation, Miao Luoying stretched out her hand and concentrated her light blue spiritual power. It was a sphere, a sphere that Chen An had never seen before. It was probably something left to her by Miao Luoying's father, but Not much real power.
"Don't worry, I will take your and Chen An's share and live well." Ding Ping took it with a smile, turned around, and said to herself: "After all, who wouldn't believe an idiot? ?」
Ding Ping turned her head and left Miao Luoying, who was as limp as mud after losing all her spiritual power, on the ground.
The next moment, she saw Chen An standing at the top of the stairs.
Her expression fluctuated violently, and the next moment she suddenly returned to miserable state.
"Chen An, I'm late, Sister Luoying...she...she can't hold it anymore..."
The voice was crying.
Chen An looked at Ding Ping expressionlessly, and the corners of his mouth seemed to be trembling.
His fists had been clenched tightly, and the real feeling of nails digging into his flesh made him feel a little pain.
But no matter what, it can't compare to the pain in the soul.
At this moment, he was still maintaining his spiritual tenacity, and he firmly believed that all of this was false.
all fake!
This is not the real Ding Ping, this is just a fantasy.
But no matter how many times Chen An said this, he was still in disbelief. Deep in his heart, a trace of... doubt arose.
He closed his eyes and punched the wall beside him.
Anger spreads from the bottom of my heart.
At this moment, how much he wanted to tear the originator of this illusion into pieces!
When Chen An opened his eyes again, Chen An found that the surrounding environment had changed. It had turned into a long corridor, and he was standing in front of a wooden door.
And all of this made Chen An feel extremely familiar. He could
Make sure you've been here before.
After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly realized.
This is the second floor of Brother Scar's villa. Behind this door is Brother Scar's study.
Chen An pursed his lips and opened his eyes wide. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, but there was also a slight tremor. He lowered his head and looked at his trembling hands.
Fantasy should come from your own heart.
Outsiders will not know such details about these past events.
So, is all this a lie created by the illusion, or is it... the reality that happened in the first place?
Chen An was a little confused.
The next moment, he heard Brother Scar's voice coming from the study.
He seemed to be talking to someone.
